Ballad in the style of a romance told by a blind storyteller in which I tell the story of my maternal great-grandfather Andrés, a cattle dealer and native of the parish of Orois (Melide) who was killed in the early twentieth century by two thieves in the oak grove of Ribadiso (Arzúa) while returning from the fair.
(GA)
Balada a modo de romance de cego na que conto a historia do meu bisavó materno Andrés, tratante de gando e natural da parroquia de Orois (Melide) que foi asasinado a comezos do século XX por dous ladróns na carballeira de Ribadiso (Arzúa) cando voltaba da feira.
(ES)
Balada a modo de romance de ciego en la que narro la historia de mi bisabuelo materno Andrés, tratante de ganado y natural de la parroquia de Orois (Melide), que fue asesinado a principios del siglo XX por dos ladrones en el bosque de Ribadiso (Arzúa), al volver de la feria.
lyrics
Escoiten señores, presten atención
a esta infamia que lle aconteceu
ó probe Andrés, veciño de Orois
voltando pró fogar
mais nunca habería chegar
Campo da feira, festa do patrón
marcha contento, os tratos foron bons
sae de Arzúa antes do solpor
volta para o fogar
mais nunca habería chegar
Na carballeira de Ribadiso
saltan dun valo dous cans, dous ladróns
pedra no peito, pártenlle o esternón
cae á lama a aghillada
coa que ó ghado lle afalaba
voltaba pró fogar
mais nunca habería chegar
